Where We Work

Globally Present, Locally Driven

Our roots stem from a private sector agribusiness in America’s heartland. Our projects, partnerships and local insights cross continents. These factors steer how we work to strengthen global agricultural markets. But, you don’t have to take our word for it. Learn more about individual projects below.

EAST AFRICA | TRASE

USDA Trade in Agriculture Safely and Efficiently (TRASE)

Easing sanitary and phytosanitary-related trade barriers in East Africa.

2019 – 2024

The TRASE project is expanding agricultural trade for the East African Community (EAC) partner states (Kenya, Uganda, Rwanda, Tanzania, and Burundi), domestically, regionally, and internationally, with a focus on sanitary and phytosanitary (SPS) standards. The project is domesticating the EAC Sanitary and Phytosanitary Legal Framework (ESLF) and building capacity among key public and private institutions to ease barriers to trade. It focuses on driving best practices in SPS, including promoting public-private partnerships and building awareness on the importance of food safety. Through these efforts, TRASE is opening doors for new trade and opportunity in the agriculture sector.
